Paul Allred of Metrolina Chrysler Jeep Dodge in North Carolina then passed out the 2008 Mopar Masters Guild wearables which included a vest and dress shirt with the MMG logo. Our next order of business was to discuss our meeting with Mopar that would be held on Saturday afternoon. Past President Marvin Windham of Don Drennen Motors in Alabama reminded everyone that with all the changes that have occurred with Mopar and more changes to happen within the next few weeks that we, as a guild, needed to be focused and use the valuable time that Mopar would be with us wisely. We continued discussing guild business with most members voicing their individual results with current Mopar programs and promotions. Many great ideas were shared amongst attendees. We then took a short break to join our spouses and/or guests at the Spouses Breakfast being held in the room next to our meeting room. It was great seeing everyone again and there was plenty of laughter and conversation for all to enjoy. It was now time for our Supporting Vendor presentations. We will touch briefly on each one. Starting off this year’s gathering was a long time Supporting Vendor of the guild, Reynolds & Reynolds. Jason Sideris, Director, Product Marketing Fixed Operations gave us updates on the organization itself and new product. Jason tells us that all new product and support will solely be within the U.S. which brought a nice round of applause. Some of the fixed updates presented by Jason: For ERA DMS: • 206 Enhancements over 2 years – 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 & 7.0 • 97 ERA-wide enhancements included in 7.1 (released Jan 08) • 7 projects approved for Parts (Continued on page 6)
